The '''Gospel of Luke''' is the 3rd book in the [[New Testament]] coming after the Gospels of [[Gospel of Matthew|Matthew]] and [[Mark]] and before the [[Gospel of John]].  It tells the story of the life of Jesus, being written to [[Theophilus]].  Luke does not claim to be an eyewitness, but instead one who has "carefully investigated everything from the beginning" (Luke 1:3) and now wants to "write an orderly account" so that Theophilus would "know the certainty of the things" he had been taught. (Luke 1:3-4)

Luke is considered one of the [[synoptic gospels]] and Luke is generally considered to have borrowed from Mark as one of his sources as did Matthew.  It is unknown if Matthew or Luke borrowed from each other or which came first.
